Being Reborn Again

In other words…I got baptized. Yes, I did!! And it feels wonderful. I’m Christian, not a religious person (there is a HUGE difference). I respect people and do not judge anybody. I follow God, pray, sing, dance, and read the Bible. I do not let church get in the way of my personal life. I also do things that are normal.

Anyways, I know that after accepting Christ as my savior I must also be baptized. Nobody forced me to do this. My parents or church members…I decided to do this. And it felt great. I was nervous but happy. This is a great decision that I must take seriously. I will be reborn through Christ and my sins from the past will be erased. Of course, sometimes I will fall but God will help me back up. I am determined to be a new person.

I never thought this day would come. After six weeks of classes it did come, and I will always remember May 18th, 2014. It was a great ceremony. Everybody congratulated me and I even received a certificate. I can’t describe the joy I feel and felt! My pastor was extremely happy and wonderful. I can’t wait for the things that will come :).

If you read my post about why May is awesome, then you will know that this event was included there. This whole weekend was awesome. My special prom, my dance event from school, and now my baptism. May has been the best so far :D.

Poem:

This will be a little poem dedicated to God and to what I felt when I got baptized.

The Pledge

I promise to read each day and each night.
I know it’s the key to growing up right.
I’ll read to myself, I’ll read to a crowd.
It makes no difference if silent or loud.
I’ll read at my desk, at home and at school,
on my bean bag or bed, by the fire or pool.
Each book that I read puts smarts in my head
’cause brains grow more thoughts the more they are fed.
Come rain or come shine, snow, wind or sleet,
each day of the week reading’s a treat.
So I take this pledge to make reading my way
of feeding my brain what it needs every day.
